A new report just dropped tracking tens of thousands of YouTube sponsorships—and the numbers are stunning. YouTube sponsorships grew 53.9% year-over-year in the first half of 2025. Ground News sponsored over 1,800 videos in just six months (that's 10+ videos per day). And here's the kicker: the 25K-100K view range saw the largest absolute growth in sponsored videos. Translation? You don't need millions of subscribers to land brand deals anymore. Today I'm breaking down the 2025 YouTube Sponsorship Landscape Report with Joshua Cohen, founder of Tubefilter, Streamy Awards, and Gospel Stats. We're unpacking what's actually happening in the creator economy right now—and what it means for your sponsorship strategy. Here's what we cover: • Why entertainment and gaming creators are finally getting deals (after years of struggling) • The "sweet spot" view range that most brands can actually afford • Why YouTube is 3-4 years behind podcasting in brand awareness deals • Shorts are getting 200 billion daily views, but only 3% are sponsored (this is about to change) • How dynamic ad insertions will let you monetize 5-year-old videos • Why TikTok and Instagram pay creators nothing, yet millions still post there • The Call Her Daddy effect: How big podcast moves to YouTube are changing everything Plus, Joshua shares why brands are becoming more sophisticated talent scouts, hunting for creators with "actionable audiences that convert"—regardless of follower count. If you've been told your niche is "too hard" to monetize or your views are "too small" to matter, this episode will completely reframe how you think about sponsorships in 2025.
